Great wine from Elk, about 15 minutes from the cabin. You'll need to book an appointment ahead of time as they don't often take visitors at the winery. Reach out to info@drewwines.com for availability. They have a great tasting room in Phil as well (in the Madrones).

Wendy has out together a great little spot for tastings, both local and from abroad. Great place to try a few local Mendocino wines that don't have tasting rooms of their own. Also boasts an impressive collection of wines from both new and old world regions. Nice selection of snacks and a highly recommended stop if you are into trying hard to find wines in the Anderson Valley.

Family-friendly Activities

Great for kids, fun for adults as well. A historic train through the redwoods with a few open top cars to get fresh air on the ride. A bit of food available on board, but better to grab something in Fort Bragg before or after. A beer on board is never a bad idea either.
